Facts

  • Rapid opiate detoxification (ROD) is an emerging treatment option for opiate withdrawal that is reportedly faster and causes less physical discomfort than traditional forms of opiate detoxification.
  • It is important to understand that methadone withdrawal treatment is not the same as s methadone maintenance program, in which individuals who are unwilling to give up opiates are prescribed methadone as a legal, long-term substitute for their drug of choice.
  • When methadone is used to help an individual avoid opiate withdrawal symptoms, doses of methadone are administered every four to six hours and are slowly decreased until withdrawal symptoms have disappeared, then dosages are discontinued. It is likely that the individual will become dependent to Methadone however and the individual should research all options before choosing this one.
  • One option that is sometimes used to avoid opiate withdrawal is to replace the individual's drug of choice with methadone, a long-acting, cross-tolerant opiate that does not normally produce a "high."

Residential Short-Term Rehab (30 Days or Less) - McIntire, Iowa

A residential short-term treatment (30 days or less) program offers care 24 hours a day 7 days a week for an average of 30 days (or less) depending on the treatment center. The clients stay at the rehab facility and are ensured a totally alcohol and drug-free environment during their recovery process. While in treatment they handle their problems with drug and/or alcohol addiction while learning how to go about their life without turning to drugs and alcohol to solve their concerns. When the client has completed their residential short-term treatment, they generally continue their recovery process by going into outpatient treatment, attending meetings, therapy or counseling. Heavily addicted individuals who have a long history of substance abuse will benefit from dwelling at a sober living home after they finish treatment. This will help them solidify their new found sobriety and give them strength and support.
